[http://deepneural.blogspot.fr/p/welcome.html Point and click configuration files] that cause Vagrant to automatically download and configure an Octave 4.2.2 server VM under OS X including 10.10 Yosemite, 10.11 El Capitan, 10.12 Sierra and 10.13 High Sierra. The install process pulls down Octave 4.2.2 from the repository. All software used in running this server VM is open source (Vagrant, VirtualBox, Octave). The Octave GUI and graphics will display seamlessly on the Mac via the Mac's native X-windows server, while the server runs headless. The recommended configuration ensures that by default user files written by the GUI are in a folder shared with the Mac's filesystem, and the VM suspends automatically when the user quits the GUI. Any edited files then persist in the Mac's shared folder.

==Binary installer for OS X 10.9.1==
A [http://sourceforge.net/projects/octave/files/Octave%20MacOSX%20Binary/2013-12-30%20binary%20installer%20of%20Octave%203.8.0%20for%20OSX%2010.9.1%20%28beta%29/ binary installer] for Mavericks can be found on Octave Forge.
This installer will install all binaries for GNU Octave 3.8.0 itself and its dependencies under
  /usr/local/octave/3.8.0
And will create two entries in the Applications folder
/Applications/Octave-cli.app
/Applications/Octave-gui.app
Which will start Octave in CLI and GUI mode respectively, these are just small wrappers containing a startup script and an icon to allow launching Octave from the Finder.
If you wish to uninstall GNU Octave 3.8.0 and all other software installed by this installer you can simply move the three folders listed above to the Trash. Notice that you will need to authenticate with an administrator password to be allowed to do so.
You may need to override Gatekeeper to allow installation. You may find instructions about how to do this on [http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5290 this page] in the section labeled "How to open an app from a unidentified developer and exempt it from Gatekeeper".
In short:
* In Finder, Control-click or right click the icon of the app.
* Select Open from the top of contextual menu that appears.
* Click Open in the dialog box. If prompted, enter an administrator name and password.
This installer is known to work on OS X 10.9.1, you may try, at your own risk, to use it for installing on other system versions but it is not guaranteed to work.
